Chad Morris is a great offensive coordinator

But if he doesn't start putting the ball in the hands of Andre Ellington more often, I may pull my hair out.
WHYYY, would you not give AE the ball 20-25 times a game?
He is a beast, can handle the workload, and can pound for 2 or 3 yards several times before he finally busts out the big one.
Give him the freekin ball.

I am with you, trust me. Last game I wasn't as upset about it though. It would be tough to recover from 25 carries in 5 days. I would love to see a big workload if he is having some success tonight though.

Is the Internet the place where you get to voice your contempt for all things you do not agree with?
See, what you did, Mr. zeptallica, is commonly called a "leap".
I spoke of my desire to see AE run the ball more, you immediately leap to "Chad Morris knows more than you".
Nice. Enjoy your internet. Thank you for allowing me to use it.

Did you know he carried the ball 19 times last week?
Oct 25, 2012, 3:29 PM
|

That is pretty close to 20. Week before 24. Week before that 25. So now I wonder if you actually have any clue of what you speak.

How do you know he can handle the workload?
Oct 25, 2012, 1:44 PM

I'm not saying he can't, but I certainly have no idea. I don't watch AE in practice, I haven't had conversations with him after games or talked with trainers to learn about any dings he might be suffering from. Are you basing your assumption on the fact that he is a good RB so that means he can handle it?
I've never heard anything about how much punishment AE can take either way, but his durability history indicates his playing time might be right where the staff wants it to be to keep him healthy.

I agree with the original poster

I do believe that the problem is with our O-line (AE gets stuffed way too often at the line of scrimmage), but AE is also a guy that needs to get in a groove and is just way too dangerous to not give the ball to more often than we are. I hated seeing Boyd constantly run the ball instead of AE at the end of the game last week.

I would like to see Chad rely more in the running game when
Oct 25, 2012, 1:49 PM

Boyd is struggling. But, not just with Ellington. Sammy and Boyd can both get yards and distribute the carries to keep Ellington healthy. Chad can get impatient with the running game and put a struggling qb in difficult situations.

I agree but part of this comes with Boyd's reads. There were several times last week he definitely should have let AE have the ball but instead pulled it out and kept it for minimal gain. I hope tonight the we see a complete game on both sides of the ball. Cause I don't think thats happened yet.
GO TIGERS!!!! BEAT WAKE!!!

he has the most rushing attempts in the ACC...not sure you can give it to him much more than that...he's averaging 19 carries a game and thats including the blowouts early where he didnt play full games...

You guys are all wrong. THIS is why Morris called the game
Oct 25, 2012, 2:06 PM
|

like he did, and will continue to do for the next 4 games. We are capable of running a very Vanilla offensive scheme against the next 4 opponents, and should be able to win with the talent that we have on the field.
The game on Nov 24th against the Cooties is when the offense will be unleashed and everything is revealed. Nothing held back, and we may score triple digits!
Take this with a grade of slaw you guys. I'm just ready for the game tonight. GO TIGERS!!!

anyone who is down on our offensive system is beyond ridiculous. If they come away tonight a put up 7 or 10 points total then you may have point but when these guys have a crap game and still put up 40....please... if they can get 40-50 points a game giving the ball to dalton freeman every play i'm down wit it.
